yeh,you dont know what to do for the best,i dont want the roof to be week so what is the best way and right timber to use,i just looked at the plans again and its 225x50 which i think is 9.5x1.5 inch

yeh look very good,but am in ireland mate,whole new world out here :lol:

didnt know they did them?and never seen anything like that over here in ireland what way would you build it,not sure i trust the way they do things over here
